Headline act in the Garden of Unearthly Delights again this year at Adelaide Fringe, Blanc de Blanc Encore is back, and if you haven’t seen it yet please make 2022 the year you do. It’s the PERFECT Fringe show for an hilarious date night or a night out with your girlfriends.

Showing in the gorgeous old Speigeltent at GOUD this show is definitely not for the family, or your best pick for a Dad and Daughter Fringe pick, Blanc de Blanc Encore lives up to every five star review you’ll read.

Straight off the bat (or the balls), the show is R rated which in our loose moral opinion is a bit harsh. Sure it’s got nudity, bad language, sexual references, and glorifies alcohol consumption. But honestly……that’s the whole of Fringe wrapped up in one show isn’t it? We write A LOT of kids articles on this website……..the odd show like this is a refreshing night off from the kid gigs, and last time I checked, our audience are all adults.

It’s a little bit bit classy strip joint (is that a thing?) a little bit comedy club, throw in some acrobatics, a bit of burlesque, dancing, sexy singing and top it all off with a gigantic all in pillow fight and a french accent. Got the idea?

Five very solid stars from us again this year, but final warning, it’s not for kids……… or Karen’s!

Our highlights? Adelaide’s own Melanie Hawkins in a ball gown over enthusiastically masturbating like a man (with a seemingly massive imaginary WANG) to classical music and coming in close second……the cock slappery / beat boxing was some of the best I have ever seen.

*Narrator: “The reviewer has in fact never before witnessed cock slappery with beat boxing.”

Go see it. Not with your kid. Thank you for the ha-penis Blanc de Blanc Encore.
